We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

The Pucheng Grand Hotel, a showroom on the 12th floor, was packed with hundreds of people.

Almost all of Macao's celebrities were gathered here today, including Governor Ichi Di, Mr. Ho, the owner of the Pucheng Grand Hotel, Mr. Fok, and so on.

Su Cheng's arrival caused everyone present to quickly converge towards him.

After all, even in Hong Kong, Su Cheng belonged to the highest echelon, let alone a small Macao.

"Mr. Su, long time no see," Ichi Di greeted Su Cheng with a smile.

"Governor, I've been too busy with business lately, I'm ashamed of my title as the chief economic designer of Macao!" Su Cheng said with emotion.

"How could that be? We've all seen the changes in Macao over the past year, and Mr. Su, you deserve the most credit," Ichi Di said eloquently.

Su Cheng's arrival brought the most exciting moment to this "Macao Charity Night" auction. A Jiao, who was following beside him, didn't dare to speak, only cautiously trailing behind Su Cheng.

Charity events are actually upper-class gatherings in a region, including not only celebrities from Macao and Hong Kong, but also the heads of major Macao societies.

Mr. Ho had been operating in Macao for so long that he had already accumulated enough prestige here. Even the gang leaders treated him with respect.

Once he opened his mouth, these gang leaders naturally came over.

Moreover, this was also a good opportunity for these gang leaders, a good opportunity to integrate into Macao's upper class.

In fact, the vast majority of Macao's societies are related to those in Hong Kong, such as the 13K, Sun Yee On, Wo On Tai, and Wo Shing Wo, the four major Hong Kong societies, all have branches here. However, these branches, due to their distance from Hong Kong, are mostly nominal relationships, and they have strong independence.

Including Macao's business tycoons, political figures, and gang leaders, all hoped to establish some kind of relationship with Su Cheng, so they treated Su Cheng with great enthusiasm.

After shaking hands and greeting the main bigwigs, it was almost eight o'clock in the evening.

To Su Cheng's left was Ichi Di, and to Ichi Di's right was Mr. Fok.

Mr. Ho, on the other hand, was sitting to Su Cheng's right.

Such an arrangement was enough to show how much Mr. Ho valued Su Cheng.

In fact, Mr. Ho had originally not planned to invite Su Cheng, after all, such a charity auction would only be considered a small-scale auction in Hong Kong.

Everyone knew that Su Cheng's businesses were growing more and more, how could such a small auction invite such a big figure like Su Cheng?

Precisely because of this, Mr. Ho had originally not planned to invite Su Cheng, so as not to waste each other's time.

However, what he didn't expect was that his people actually discovered Su Cheng's whereabouts at the pier today.

Thus, he quickly learned that Su Cheng had arrived in Macao and was staying at the Songshan Villa area.

This led to the scene where Mr. Ho suddenly called to invite Su Cheng to attend the auction.

After Su Cheng and the others sat down, the "Macao Charity Night" officially began.

The host first introduced the current situation of Macao's charitable undertakings, as well as the economic difficulties currently encountered by Tung Sin Tong, and so on.

After the introduction, it was already twenty minutes later.

Next, the auction officially entered the auction process.

In front of Su Cheng was a booklet introducing the auction items.

This booklet was obviously more detailed than the introduction materials in the invitation letter, and the pictures on it were also clearer.

At this moment, the staff carefully pushed out the first item, pushing it next to the auction table. It was a wooden panel oil painting, which was now protected in a cubic transparent glass frame.

"First of all, the first item we are auctioning tonight is Mr. Raphael Sanzio's work 'Saint Catherine of Alexandria' from the Italian Renaissance."

"Raphael Sanzio was a famous Italian painter, one of the three masters of the High Renaissance along with Da Vinci and Michelangelo, and also the youngest of the 'Three High Renaissance Masters', representing the pinnacle that artists of the Renaissance could reach in pursuing the cause of ideal beauty."

"Raphael Sanzio was of a peaceful and elegant temperament, and created a large number of Madonna images. His works fully embody tranquility, harmony, coordination, symmetry, as well as perfect and serene order."

"This work was originally treasured by a collector in England. This time, the collector entrusted our auction house to auction this masterpiece. The starting price is 50,000 Macao Patacas, and each bid increase must not be less than 10,000 Macao Patacas," the auctioneer directly introduced the item on the stage.

These, in fact, were all described in the booklet in Su Cheng's hand, but not everyone at the scene had such a booklet. Only important figures were given these introduction materials.

Su Cheng wasn't very interested in these works of art.

However, there was a constant stream of bids at the scene.

Moreover, Raphael Sanzio was also a famous painter of the Renaissance, and this painting was also very valuable for collection, so it wouldn't be a loss to bid for it.

This kind of charity auction is not only about doing charity, but also an important opportunity for them to show off in front of big figures, and also a demonstration of financial strength.

Therefore, in less than two minutes, this first item had risen from the starting price of 50,000 Macao Patacas to 160,000 Macao Patacas, and there were still people bidding.

Seeing this scene, the auctioneer on the stage was very excited, constantly inducing the people below to continue bidding.

In the end, this item was sold for 380,000 Macao Patacas.

The second item, the third item, the fourth item…

Items were auctioned one after another, some at high prices, some at low prices.

The highest transaction price reached 1.09 million Macao Patacas.

And the lowest transaction price also reached 120,000 Macao Patacas.

Soon, the auction came to the 13th item.

This was a Jingdezhen porcelain blue and white porcelain from the Yuan Dynasty. After the item was pushed out for display, it was seen that the blue and white colors complemented each other, creating a pleasant and interesting effect, crystal clear and bright, beautiful and long-lasting.

The starting price of this blue and white porcelain was 100,000 Macao Patacas. This time, Su Cheng finally opened his mouth to bid.

After all, participating in a charity auction, and he was also a specially invited guest of this auction, he had to show something.

Moreover, he thought this blue and white porcelain was quite beautiful.

The items auctioned tonight were all appraised and confirmed by several experts to be genuine before they were put up for auction, so Su Cheng wasn't afraid of bidding for a fake at all.
